Overview The subject of young love is explored in the sense of it being wonderful, frightening, all-consuming, and sometimes fleeing.

Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) As someone who never had a dog, much less a pet which was invited into my home, I didn’t feel like I was missing out on much. I didn’t have this needy thing which required me to feed it, walk it, and clean it for its entire life. However, after watching…
Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) Often times when films target the poor, it is about them pulling up their bootstraps and eventually being fine at the end. That or doing something illegal to get by.

Overview Ballet 422 is the type of documentary which more so has the viewer act as a shadow who watches as everyone gears up for a performance vs. being the type of documentary which is almost detective-like and probing. Review (with Spoilers) – Below
In the pursuit of being funny, Bad Moms completely wastes its opportunity to address the issues of trying to be the perfect mom, while still having some fun.
Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) After Revolori’s past performances in Dope as well as The Grand Budapest Hotel, combined Josh Peck’s work, of which I honestly only know him for The Wackness and appearing in David Dobrik videos (I wasn’t a Drake and Josh fan), there was some hope here. I figured, like XOXO, it would…
While it seemed, for awhile, M. Night Shyamalan would stand tall amongst Steven Spielberg, Woody Allen and other legendary directors who could have a series of flops yet still get financing, it seems he may have something on his hands here. Not a new classic, but definitely something which will win at the box office.
Unfortunately, being offensively funny has become a thing and for some reason, it is assumed anyone can do it. On top of that, it is assumed that as long as it is funny, you can get away with saying anything. But what happens when two unlikable anti-heroes aim for anyone and everyone and damn near…
Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) If you can get pass the constant reminder everyone is doing what Gibbons would have wanted, the corniest dialog you have ever heard and only just enough of a story to set up the action sequences, you may actually enjoy yourself.

Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) What constitutes a good action movie? Is it jaw-dropping action sequences? Comical lead(s)? Perhaps twists and turns which keep you on the edge of your seat? Perhaps the Marvel standard maybe becoming jaded over time, but at least they are still entertaining. An adjective I can’t use for Sleepless at all….
Overview While the film contains most of the narrative issues the book had, some fans of the book, and those who only saw the trailer, may like the film. Review (with Spoilers) With reading the book this is based on (If I Stay: Chapter by Chapter Review), as well as the book’s sequel (Where She…
Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) Like most indie movies, Between Us seems either written for one niche demographic or just made to please its creator. For with its musing and how the relationship between Diane and Henry progresses, surely this movie wasn’t made for your entertainment, pleasure, and consumption. Noted Actor(s) Diane (Olivia Thirlby) | Henry…
Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) Hidden Figures is a feel good movie. One that exemplifies what the term edutainment means and there ain’t a bad performance in it.

Rose Leslie is kind of an odd actress. In television shows, she can possess these varied characters you latch onto and who you get pissed, and maybe cry over when they leave. Yet her movie career, thus far, she hasn’t been able to find those type of characters who remind you why you watch production…
Overview/ Review (with Spoilers) When a movie gets pulled from a release schedule or pushed back, it leads you to believe it must be downright horrible.
